Will it pick up leaves? I have a leaves that blow inside my entryway. It's a pain to grab the broom and/or big vacuum every time i open the door!

If they are not too big to go through the vacuum nozzle, yes. If too large and cover nozzle, no.

It has the power but I doubt the opening is large enough, unless the leaves are in pieces.

If the leaves are dry and not too large it should be able to do it. Remember to empty the compartment that fills up the vacuumed items.

I just used the vacuum yesterday to vacuum my whole second floor which has hard wood floors and some area rugs. It worked beautifully!! I never have to pick anything up. I would have never bought the machine if it didn't pick up along the edges.

It picks up just about anything you roll over as long as it's not to big. You'll need to adjust the height of the brushes until you have them right for the grass and amount of leaves. Also it's better to go over the lawn when then leaves aren't to thick. I would use it every couple of days instead of waiting until all the leaves are down.

Yes, I agree with their response, it's design for vacuuming and mulching grass and leaves.it won't do like the typical indoor vacuum.

Nope. It will pick up larger items. Doesn't work great if you have a lot of small leafs, etc.

Yes, it will pick up leaves. However, depending on the amount of leaves you have in your pool you may have to clean out the robot's filter chamber more often. When my pool has a lot of leaves in it I usually use the garden hose leaf vacuum head to get the majority of the out first before running the unit. Over all I am very pleased with the bot's performance.

Since it does raise and lower to the ground, I did use it in my driveway (blacktop) to pick up leaves. It did a nice job - it even picked up some cedar droppings as well, although not as well as the leaves. I found that it also works very well on even ground. For a lot of variation in the yard, I found that if you raise the brushes slightly, it works just fine. This is my new favorite yard tool for the fall!

It does pick up more deep down dirt and some of the long hair. But you are still going to get it in the brushes. I have 2 dogs and a wife with long hair. with the new bin I could tell with the first round it picked up more than the old bin. It is kinda like one of the wind tunnel vacs now.

It does a pretty good job. My hardwood is in the kitchen, so there's a lot of dirtiness. I like using the vacuum to pick up all stuff that gets in the corners of my hardwood floors, and then do a swiffer/mop on top if it to truly clean.

The biggest problem with this and hair is that it gets caught around the brush rollers- it will pick it up but you will need to be prepared to yank it out of the brush rollers. You really cant beat a broom for picking up human hair on hard floor.

Yes, picks up loose pieces and hair off floor. Not so well with sticky things.

Unfortunately I don't have hardwood floors. I have tile floors and it picks up everything, hair, dust, and the smallest speck the eye can see. I just love it!

Hi - It'll depend on the size of the rug. I have an 8 x 10 area run and have no problems; however on smaller area rugs (like door or bath mats), it'll pull them up. On trick I've learned though....if I tilt the vacuum up a little when it reaches the edge of the door mat, it doesn't suck them up. I hope this helps you.

NO ! It works BEST when you have loose piles on top of the Grass that are only maybe about 2~3 inches high ~ It will pull up leaves from within the Grass Blades IF you adjust it for Maximum Depth (Sweeper Brushes scrape lower). IF you run it into small (4 ~ 6 inch high) piles of loose leaves, it'll remove some of the leaves each time you pass thru the Pile; then you just have to keep going thru the Leaf Pile until it picks up most of them. The unit needs some type of curved 'Shields' on either side of the Catcher Basket to stop the 20 ~30% of leaves from flying out the sides & missing the Basket ! < only real 'flaw'. NO !

I use it to vacuum the throw rugs at the front and back doors. I just step on a corner of the throw rug an it cleans it up. I also have a runner in the bath room that I vacuum with this and as long as I put a foot on 1 corner there are no problems. But your right; it does have a lot of suction....and that's a good thing!

Just based on my own negative experiences with my Dyson, I would suggest that you think about getting a swiffer style dry cloth sweeper. It is a lot cheaper, and not nearly as much trouble. I end up having to use one even with my Dyson because this model scratches my hardwood. Good luck!

Not really, no blower or vac will since they pack down and won't blow easily or be picked up well. Blowing them into a pile which fluffs them up some and then sucking up the pile works reasonably well, the wet leaves don't clog the impeller but may clog the entry to the bag if you don't keep it straight.
